Lev 23 assumes the month begins on a Sabbath.

Lev 23:5 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, at twilight,is a Passover offering to the Lord. 23:6 Then on the fifteenth day of the same monthwill be the festival of unleavened bread to the Lord; seven days you must eat unleavened bread. 23:7 On the first day there will be a holy assembly for you; you must not do any regular work.

...

23:24 “Tell the Israelites, ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you must have a complete rest, a memorial announced by loud horn blasts, a holy assembly. 23:25 You must not do any regular work, butyou must present a gift to the Lord.’”

...

23:35 On the first day is a holy assembly; you must do no regular work. 23:36 For seven days you must present a gift to the Lord. On the eighth day there is to be a holy assembly for you, and you must present a gift to the Lord. It is a solemn assembly day;you must not do any regular work.
Have you actually read Lev 23? There is only ONE Sabbath that occurs on the first day of only ONE month, that is the Feast of Trumpets and it occurs one time a year and is an annual Sabbath. These are also called high days...

Joh 19:31 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

The Sabbath being referred to here is the First Day of Unleavened Bread and it occurs on the fifteenth day of the first month.

The weekly Sabbath is always on the seventh day of the week...

Lev 23:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my feasts.
Lev 23:3 Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.

Exo 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Exo 20:9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
Exo 20:10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
Exo 20:11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

It assumes no such thing.
Sure it does.

The Feast Days are Sabbaths but are not the weekly Sabbath. There is a difference. The Feast Days occur on certain days of certain months. The weekly Sabbath occurs on the seventh day of the week, EVERY WEEK.
There's not a need to do this given the assumption that the month began with a Sabbath. There is no need to have "shifting" Sabbaths that change which day of the week they occur on from year to year. The calendar you use has Sabbaths that rove around. There is no need to do this given the assumption that in the Ancient Israelite system the month began with a Sabbath; which also explains why the festival calendar felt no need to distinguish between regular Sabbaths and festival Sabbaths. There was no difference and the text of Lev 23 makes no such distinction.

You have no trouble understanding that Sunday, the first day of the week, occurs every week on the first day of the week, why is it difficult to understand that the Sabbath occurs every week on the seventh day of the week?
Why is it difficult for you to understand that the calendar you use is not the same as the one the earliest Israelites were using.

The whole problem is that you are assuming the months began with a Sabbath and that is the weekly Sabbath.

The months do not begin with a Sabbath, they begin with a New Moon. The word month is derived from the word moon.

Secondly, there is a weekly Sabbath that falls every seventh day and then there are annual Sabbaths, Feast Days, that fall on certain days of certain months.

I'll bet you have no trouble understanding that Sunday comes every first day of the week but xmas and Ishtar can fall on any day of the week. Xmas being on the 25th of the twelfth month and Ishtar being related to the vernal equinox. Oops, Ishtar is always on a Sunday, I typed before I thought.

Do months on the Gregorian calendar begin with a Sunday or a holiday?

That's what Lev 23 assumes.

And Lev 23 is pretty clear that the month began with a Sabbath.

This only happens because the Israelite calendar changed (and for good reason). There is no distinction between feast Sabbaths and weekly Sabbath in Lev 23 - there is no distinction because they were one and the same. The distinction only became necessary because the calendar changed.

I'm not sure how this is relevant to the discussion.

OK, show me where the months begin with a Sabbath...


Lev 23:6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the LORD; seven days you must eat unleavened bread.

Oh wait, that is not the beginning of the month, that is the fifteenth day of the month.

Lev 23:15 'And you shall count for yourselves from the day after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering: seven Sabbaths shall be completed.
Lev 23:16 Count fifty days to the day after the seventh Sabbath; then you shall offer a new grain offering to the LORD.
Lev 23:17 You shall bring from your dwellings two wave loaves of two-tenths of an ephah. They shall be of fine flour; they shall be baked with leaven. They are the firstfruits to the LORD.
Lev 23:18 And you shall offer with the bread seven lambs of the first year, without blemish, one young bull, and two rams. They shall be as a burnt offering to the LORD, with their grain offering and their drink offerings, an offering made by fire for a sweet aroma to the LORD.
Lev 23:19 Then you shall sacrifice one kid of the goats as a sin offering, and two male lambs of the first year as a sacrifice of a peace offering.
Lev 23:20 The priest shall wave them with the bread of the firstfruits as a wave offering before the LORD, with the two lambs. They shall be holy to the LORD for the priest.
Lev 23:21 And you shall proclaim on the same day that it is a holy convocation to you. You shall do no customary work on it. It shall be a statute forever in all your dwellings throughout your generations.

Oh wait, this one is variable and occurs 50 days AFTER the weekly Sabbath that occurs during the Days of Unleavened Bread. It is not fixed to a certain day of a certain month.

Lev 23:27 "Also the tenth day of this seventh month shall be the Day of Atonement. It shall be a holy convocation for you; you shall afflict your souls, and offer an offering made by fire to the LORD.
Lev 23:28 And you shall do no work on that same day, for it is the Day of Atonement, to make atonement for you before the LORD your God.
Lev 23:29 For any person who is not afflicted in soul on that same day shall be cut off from his people.
Lev 23:30 And any person who does any work on that same day, that person I will destroy from among his people.
Lev 23:31 You shall do no manner of work; it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
Lev 23:32 It shall be to you a sabbath of solemn rest, and you shall afflict your souls; on the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening to evening, you shall celebrate your sabbath."


Oh wait, this one is on the tenth day of the month.


Lev 23:34 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying: 'The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days to the LORD.
Lev 23:35 On the first day there shall be a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work on it.
Lev 23:36 For seven days you shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD. On the eighth day you shall have a holy convocation, and you shall offer an offering made by fire to the LORD. It is a sacred assembly, and you shall do no customary work on it.

This occurs on the fifteenth day and then there is another feast on the twenty-third day of the seventh month.



This only happens because the Israelite calendar changed (and for good reason). There is no distinction between feast Sabbaths and weekly Sabbath in Lev 23 - there is no distinction because they were one and the same. The distinction only became necessary because the calendar changed.
The calendar was in effect prior to Lev 23 and is still in effect. Please show me where God threw that calendar out.



I'm not sure how this is relevant to the discussion.



Did the earliest Israelites use a Gregorian calendar?
No, they did not and that is what you seem incapable of understanding. They used a lunar calendar that began each month with a New Moon. The weekly Sabbath is not determined by the moon...

Gen 2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished.
Gen 2:2 And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.
Gen 2:3 Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made.

It was created on the seventh day of creation week.

On the venerable Day of [the Sun], not the son the creator, Sun creaded, worship.

-facing east at the rising sun, as like a god in ancent times..

and thought he could stamp out the faith of Christ, when our fathers[bad guys]

You say that a Sunday law is coming to my continent soon.

With the world getting more and more godless you think
that a universal law will be promulgated which will decree that we worship on Sunday?

You can't be serious, surely. Worship - of any kind and on any day - is the last thing the ungodly
will be wanting to encourage, let alone enshrine in law!
yes i'm dead serious, it's called [the mystery of inequity], and the restrants are off...

and the world familys want this, sees as a blessing nothing wrong, being decieved.

THE NATIONAL DAY OF REST - Bing

World family day-this looks like [a lamb] to everyone, turning into weekday family time.

The Current Pope, Obama and other leaders are calling for this rest day and some have it.

Also world trade unions are making this happen, thinking solve all the problems of labor.

now Paul as custom,he observed and taught jews and gentials, not only to the gentials,
but both on same day, on Gods day Sabbath. He taught 3 years on the Sabbath,

working the 6 other days to make a living, when did he preach to gentials?
as Jesus was [his custom] to, teaching jews and gentiles both at the same time,

the new church congragated on the sabbath to hear apostles preach,
disciples talked and learned daily among themselfs,

but preached to public on the sabbath, in a place of worship to be had.

a city had to wait the whole week to here him preach more, preached 3 sabbath days.
why did he not just teach on sunday instead ? or any other day but the 7th.?

the word who made it, preached his word on this day also.
and threw people out of the temple, because they robbed God of his Time.

Paul , talking to new gentile and jew converts, why does he mention Sabbaths, holy days ,

16Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday,
or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:

if they had been done away with them sabbaths,why but which he did himself
for over 3 years [keeping] the sabbath like his custom was.

[He]was teaching them [to keep] the sabbath, and not let others tell you other wise.

There is no mention of the abolition of God’s law or His holy days. Nothing is done away
in these verses. In fact, it is just the opposite. The very criticism the Colossians were
receiving about their observance of these days proves they were keeping them.
How could they be criticized “with regard to” days they were not keeping?

Paul is warning them not to return to or be influenced by their old pagan ways—
the ways of those who hated God’s laws and His festivals.



; but the body [is] of Christ.
the word [is] was added and was not inspired by paul, and should [not] be in there.

this verse should read proper,

do not let [anyone] tell you about sabbath holy days, [but] the body of Christ.

now we know it was not peter that little stone, but Christ the rock.
but Christs own words and as [His] customs where taught.

Have I labored in vein he says?

Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always [obeyed], not as in my presence only,
but now much more in [my absence], [work out] your own salvation with fear and trembling.


17Which are [a shadow] of things to come,

at this point, Christ is risen, what shadow do they talk about or mean?

of things to come [not] past, these feasts show the rest of the story, from the begining


as you are too lazy to support your claims with references they are invalid

in fact the church met on the first day of the week (Acts 20.7)

The reason why Paul often preached on the Sabbath was because that was when Jews had gathered together to hear the word

The Sabbath may best be done justice if you do the works of the father. Jesus went about doing his fathers work and people said you should not be doing this this day. Jesus gave them an answer. Jesus also said how to observe. You should have your tradition but if you must break the tradition because circumstances call or god calls then the spirit will guide you. Something I feel that's good is we should make a homemade temple or shrine in our house in a designated spot. If we can't go to church have our own holy place for reverence or prayer( Ideas...)

1Let us therefore [fear], lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest,
any of you should seem to come short of it.

2For unto us was the gospel preached, [as well] as unto them:
but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.

3For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath,
if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

4For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day [on this wise],
And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.

5And in this [place again], If they shall enter into my rest.

6Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein,
and they to whom it was first preached entered not in [because of unbelief:]

7Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said,
To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.



the 7th day pictures the rest we recieve in the thousand year rein,
No the seventh day rest pointed to the rest that we now enjoy in Christ. That is why the Sabbath as a shadow pointing forward is no longer a requirement. That rest in Christ is contrasted with the rest that Joshua gave to Israel. which clearly had no reference to the Sabbath. It is continual rest.

I do not think I have ever come across a worse example of the misuse of Scripture by someone who wants to prove a point.

So you are claiming that Paul wanted them to be bound by ordinances in respect of meat and drink?

These Christians had become concerned because Judaisers had arrived among them telling them that they must observe dietary laws, and Jewish holy days and feasts. Paul tells them that such things were shadows pointing forward and are no longer valid, any more than the worshiping of angels.

Instead of such shadows they now have the substance, that is Christ. The whole passage is a warning against trying to DO things in order to become holy.

I can't find anywhere where it is stated under the new covenant, that I a Gentile be asked to observe a Saturday Sabbath. I can find scripture that plainly states

''One person considers one day more sacred than another, another treats each day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind''
You can't find any such Scripture because there is none!

I believe that the appointed times of Lev chapter 23, including the Sabbath, are still times at which God desires to meet and fellowship with His faithful.

I believe that observing these times under compulsion of commandment is totally worthless!

If you make an appointment to meet a friend at a certain time, and your friend doesn't show up; you do not break off the friendship but you are disappointed. I believe God feels the same way.

The reason why Paul often preached on the Sabbath was because that was
when Jews had gathered together to hear the word
Acts 20:7
Now on the first day of the week, when [the disciples] came together to [break bread],

Paul, ready to depart the next day[in the morning], walking ,
spoke to them and continued[other deciples not whole congration] his message until midnight.

Paul taught allways on the 7th day, the comming kingdom message, to the city jew [and] gentile;
even to after dark times, ending the sabbath, starting the first day of the week, .

a work day, evening came it was time to eat dinner, after dark, most times they all lived together ,
and ate together , [not every] meal is worship. breaking bread is [eating a meal] and giving thanks.
lookup breaking bread somewhere no link sorry

this was a work day, not worship day, paul , after sunrise, walking a great distance,
to meet his companions.his buddies where allready rowing a boat after the sabbath ended,

on work day the first day of the week, had more to talk about.
is not a commanded worship service change of days, he still taught church on sabbath.

[No] man or [doctrine] can make any other day hollowed or sanctified.
It is [the Lords day], any other is mans tradition.

this sunday worship is not from God

-other false beliefs in forceing verses to sunday worship, first day of week.

like saying he arose at sunrise sunday, but none saw him rise, and was long gone;

And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
1 Kings 22:23 (KJV)

Now therefore, behold, the Lord hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets,
and the Lord hath spoken evil concerning thee. 2 Chronicles 18:22 (KJV)

Now therefore, behold, the Lord hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of these thy prophets,
and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee.Amos 5:14 (KJV)

Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the Lord, the God of hosts,
shall be with you, as ye have spoken.
1 Corinthians 10:30 (KJV)

Prove all things; hold fast that which is good, are you lazy not to?

So you are claiming that Paul wanted them to be bound by ordinances in respect of meat and drink?

These Christians had become concerned because Judaisers pointing forward and are no longer valid, any more than the worshiping of angels.

Instead of such shadows they now have the substance, that is Christ. The whole passage is a warning against trying to DO things in order to become holy.

because Judaisers ? Jesus was one, oracles given to jews, all contracts to Israel

I am saying he told them not to return to [Traditions of men, Rudiments of the world],

because God gave holy days to our for fathers, and said not to return to pagon[egypt] ways, holidays.

read verse without the [is], a warning against turning back to worldly,and not Holy Godly things.

and talks about things to come, after Christ died, 7th day looks to rest ,7th 1000 year age, future
